mySQL Error 1040: Too Many Connection

You have to change max_connections to increase total permitted connections.

And set max_user_connections back to default 0 => no limit unless you need to limit this per user connections.

Line break (like <br>) using only css

You can use ::after to create a 0px-height block after the <h4>, which effectively moves anything after the <h4> to the next line:

Error: 'int' object is not subscriptable - Python

It would be a lot more simple just to do this;

name = input("What's your name? ")
age = int(input("How old are you? "))
print ("Hi,{0} you will be 21 in {1} years.".format(name, 21 - age))`

Automated way to convert XML files to SQL database?

There is a project on CodeProject that makes it simple to convert an XML file to SQL Script. It uses XSLT. You could probably modify it to generate the DDL too.

And See this question too : Generating SQL using XML and XSLT

SonarQube Exclude a directory

Try something like this:

Mac zip compress without __MACOSX folder?

This command did it for me:

zip -r Target.zip Source -x "*.DS_Store"

Target.zip is the zip file to create. Source is the source file/folder to zip up. And the _x parameter specifies the file/folder to not include. If the above doesn't work for whatever reason, try this instead:

zip -r Target.zip Source -x "*.DS_Store" -x "__MACOSX"

Checkout one file from Subversion

If you want to view readme.txt in your repository without checking it out:

$ svn cat http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test/readme.txt
This is a README file. You should read this.

Tip: If your working copy is out of date (or you have local modifications) and you want to see the HEAD revision of a file in your working copy, svn cat will automatically fetch the HEAD revision when you give it a path:

$ cat foo.c
This file is in my local working copy and has changes that I've made.

$ svn cat foo.c
Latest revision fresh from the repository!

SOAP vs REST (differences)

What is REST

REST stands for representational state transfer, it's actually an architectural style for creating Web API which treats everything(data or functionality) as recourse. It expects; exposing resources through URI and responding in multiple formats and representational transfer of state of the resources in stateless manner. Here I am talking about two things:

  1. Stateless manner: Provided by HTTP.
  2. Representational transfer of state: For example if we are adding an employee. . into our system, it's in POST state of HTTP, after this it would be in GET state of HTTP, PUT and DELETE likewise.

REST can use SOAP web services because it is a concept and can use any protocol like HTTP, SOAP.SOAP uses services interfaces to expose the business logic. REST uses URI to expose business logic.

REST is not REST without HATEOAS. This means that a client only knows the entry point URI and the resources are supposed to return links the client should follow. Those fancy documentation generators that give URI patterns for everything you can do in a REST API miss the point completely. They are not only documenting something that's supposed to be following the standard, but when you do that, you're coupling the client to one particular moment in the evolution of the API, and any changes on the API have to be documented and applied, or it will break.

HATEOAS, an abbreviation for Hypermedia As The Engine Of Application State, is a constraint of the REST application architecture that distinguishes it from most other network application architectures. The principle is that a client interacts with a network application entirely through hypermedia provided dynamically by application servers. A REST client needs no prior knowledge about how to interact with any particular application or server beyond a generic understanding of hypermedia. By contrast, in some service-oriented architectures (SOA), clients and servers interact through a fixed interface shared through documentation or an interface description language (IDL).

How to put the legend out of the plot

The solution that worked for me when I had huge legend was to use extra empty image layout. In following example I made 4 rows and at the bottom I plot image with offset for legend (bbox_to_anchor) at the top it does not get cut.

f = plt.figure()
ax = f.add_subplot(414)
lgd = ax.legend(loc='upper left', bbox_to_anchor=(0, 4), mode="expand", borderaxespad=0.3)
ax.autoscale_view()
plt.savefig(fig_name, format='svg', dpi=1200, bbox_extra_artists=(lgd,), bbox_inches='tight')

How should I store GUID in MySQL tables?

For those just stumbling across this, there is now a much better alternative as per research by Percona.

It consists of reorganising the UUID chunks for optimal indexing, then converting into binary for reduced storage.

How to 'insert if not exists' in MySQL?

Something worth noting is that INSERT IGNORE will still increment the primary key whether the statement was a success or not just like a normal INSERT would.

This will cause gaps in your primary keys that might make a programmer mentally unstable. Or if your application is poorly designed and depends on perfect incremental primary keys, it might become a headache.

Look into innodb_autoinc_lock_mode = 0 (server setting, and comes with a slight performance hit), or use a SELECT first to make sure your query will not fail (which also comes with a performance hit and extra code).

Clear terminal in Python

Came across this some time ago

def clearscreen(numlines=100):
  """Clear the console.
numlines is an optional argument used only as a fall-back.
"""
# Thanks to Steven D'Aprano, http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums

  if os.name == "posix":
    # Unix/Linux/MacOS/BSD/etc
    os.system('clear')
  elif os.name in ("nt", "dos", "ce"):
    # DOS/Windows
    os.system('CLS')
  else:
    # Fallback for other operating systems.
    print('\n' * numlines)

Then just use clearscreen()

Adding custom HTTP headers using JavaScript

As already said, the easiest way is to use querystring.

But if you cannot, because of security reason, you should consider using cookies.

Assign command output to variable in batch file

Okay here some more complex sample for the use of For /F

:: Main
@prompt -$G
    call :REGQUERY  "Software\Classes\CLSID\{3E6AE265-3382-A429-56D1-BB2B4D1D}"

@goto :EOF

:REGQUERY
:: Checks HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ 
:: for the key and lists its content

    @call :EXEC "REG QUERY  HKCU\%~1"
    @call :EXEC "REG QUERY "HKLM\%~1""

@goto :EOF    

:EXEC
    @set output=

    @for /F "delims=" %%i in ('%~1 2^>nul') do @(
        set output=%%i
    )

    @if not "%output%"=="" (
        echo %1 -^> %output%
    )

@goto :EOF

I packed it into the sub function :EXEC so all of its nasty details of implementation doesn't litters the main script. So it got some kinda some batch tutorial. Notes 'bout the code:

  1. the output from the command executed via call :EXEC command is stored in %output%. Batch cmd doesn't cares about scopes so %output% will be also available in the main script.
  2. the @ the beginning is just decoration and there to suppress echoing the command line. You may delete them all and just put some @echo off at the first line is really dislike that. However like this I find debugging much more nice. Decoration Number two is prompt -$G. It's there to make command prompt look like this ->
  3. I use :: instead of rem
  4. the tilde(~) in %~1 is to remove quotes from the first argument
  5. 2^>nul is there to suppress/discard stderr error output. Normally you would do it via 2>nul. Well the ^ the batch escape char is there avoids to early resolving the redirector(>). There's some simulare use a little later in the script: echo %1 -^>... so there ^ makes it possible the output a '>' via echo what else wouldn't have been possible.
  6. even if the compare at @if not "%output%"==""looks like in most common programming languages - it's maybe different that you expected (if you're not used to MS-batch). Well remove the '@' at the beginning. Study the output. Change it tonot %output%==""-rerun and consider why this doesn't work. ;)

Gson: How to exclude specific fields from Serialization without annotations

You can explore the json tree with gson.

Try something like this :

gson.toJsonTree(student).getAsJsonObject()
.get("country").getAsJsonObject().remove("name");

You can add some properties also :

gson.toJsonTree(student).getAsJsonObject().addProperty("isGoodStudent", false);

Tested with gson 2.2.4.

ASP.NET MVC Html.DropDownList SelectedValue

The problems is that dropboxes don't work the same as listboxes, at least the way ASP.NET MVC2 design expects: A dropbox allows only zero or one values, as listboxes can have a multiple value selection. So, being strict with HTML, that value shouldn't be in the option list as "selected" flag, but in the input itself.

See the following example:

<select id="combo" name="combo" value="id2">
  <option value="id1">This is option 1</option>
  <option value="id2" selected="selected">This is option 2</option>
  <option value="id3">This is option 3</option>
</select>

<select id="listbox" name="listbox" multiple>
  <option value="id1">This is option 1</option>
  <option value="id2" selected="selected">This is option 2</option>
  <option value="id3">This is option 3</option>
</select>

The combo has the option selected, but also has its value attribute set. So, if you want ASP.NET MVC2 to render a dropbox and also have a specific value selected (i.e., default values, etc.), you should give it a value in the rendering, like this:

// in my view             
<%=Html.DropDownList("UserId", selectListItems /* (SelectList)ViewData["UserId"]*/, new { @Value = selectedUser.Id } /* Your selected value as an additional HTML attribute */)%>

numpy matrix vector multiplication

Simplest solution

Use numpy.dot or a.dot(b). See the documentation here.

>>> a = np.array([[ 5, 1 ,3], 
                  [ 1, 1 ,1], 
                  [ 1, 2 ,1]])
>>> b = np.array([1, 2, 3])
>>> print a.dot(b)
array([16, 6, 8])

This occurs because numpy arrays are not matrices, and the standard operations *, +, -, / work element-wise on arrays. Instead, you could try using numpy.matrix, and * will be treated like matrix multiplication.


Other Solutions

Also know there are other options:

  • As noted below, if using python3.5+ the @ operator works as you'd expect:

    >>> print(a @ b)
    array([16, 6, 8])
    
  • If you want overkill, you can use numpy.einsum. The documentation will give you a flavor for how it works, but honestly, I didn't fully understand how to use it until reading this answer and just playing around with it on my own.

    >>> np.einsum('ji,i->j', a, b)
    array([16, 6, 8])
    
  • As of mid 2016 (numpy 1.10.1), you can try the experimental numpy.matmul, which works like numpy.dot with two major exceptions: no scalar multiplication but it works with stacks of matrices.

    >>> np.matmul(a, b)
    array([16, 6, 8])
    
  • numpy.inner functions the same way as numpy.dot for matrix-vector multiplication but behaves differently for matrix-matrix and tensor multiplication (see Wikipedia regarding the differences between the inner product and dot product in general or see this SO answer regarding numpy's implementations).

    >>> np.inner(a, b)
    array([16, 6, 8])
    
    # Beware using for matrix-matrix multiplication though!
    >>> b = a.T
    >>> np.dot(a, b)
    array([[35,  9, 10],
           [ 9,  3,  4],
           [10,  4,  6]])
    >>> np.inner(a, b) 
    array([[29, 12, 19],
           [ 7,  4,  5],
           [ 8,  5,  6]])
    

Rarer options for edge cases

  • If you have tensors (arrays of dimension greater than or equal to one), you can use numpy.tensordot with the optional argument axes=1:

    >>> np.tensordot(a, b, axes=1)
    array([16,  6,  8])
    
  • Don't use numpy.vdot if you have a matrix of complex numbers, as the matrix will be flattened to a 1D array, then it will try to find the complex conjugate dot product between your flattened matrix and vector (which will fail due to a size mismatch n*m vs n).

Contains method for a slice

It might be considered a bit 'hacky' but depending the size and contents of the slice, you can join the slice together and do a string search.

For example you have a slice containing single word values (e.g. "yes", "no", "maybe"). These results are appended to a slice. If you want to check if this slice contains any "maybe" results, you may use

exSlice := ["yes", "no", "yes", "maybe"]
if strings.Contains(strings.Join(exSlice, ","), "maybe") {
  fmt.Println("We have a maybe!")
}

How suitable this is really depends on the size of the slice and length of its members. There may be performance or suitability issues for large slices or long values, but for smaller slices of finite size and simple values it is a valid one-liner to achieve the desired result.

MySQL case sensitive query

To improve James' excellent answer:

It's better to put BINARY in front of the constant instead:

How to install Anaconda on RaspBerry Pi 3 Model B

Installing Miniconda on Raspberry Pi and adding Python 3.5 / 3.6

Skip the first section if you have already installed Miniconda successfully.

Installation of Miniconda on Raspberry Pi

wget http://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-armv7l.sh
sudo md5sum Miniconda3-latest-Linux-armv7l.sh
sudo /bin/bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-armv7l.sh

Accept the license agreement with yes

When asked, change the install location: /home/pi/miniconda3

Do you wish the installer to prepend the Miniconda3 install location to PATH in your /root/.bashrc ? yes

Now add the install path to the PATH variable:

sudo nano /home/pi/.bashrc

Go to the end of the file .bashrc and add the following line:

export PATH="/home/pi/miniconda3/bin:$PATH"

Save the file and exit.

To test if the installation was successful, open a new terminal and enter

conda

If you see a list with commands you are ready to go.

But how can you use Python versions greater than 3.4 ?


Adding Python 3.5 / 3.6 to Miniconda on Raspberry Pi

After the installation of Miniconda I could not yet install Python versions higher than Python 3.4, but i needed Python 3.5. Here is the solution which worked for me on my Raspberry Pi 4:

First i added the Berryconda package manager by jjhelmus (kind of an up-to-date version of the armv7l version of Miniconda):

conda config --add channels rpi

Only now I was able to install Python 3.5 or 3.6 without the need for compiling it myself:

conda install python=3.5
conda install python=3.6

Afterwards I was able to create environments with the added Python version, e.g. with Python 3.5:

conda create --name py35 python=3.5

The new environment "py35" can now be activated:

source activate py35

Using Python 3.7 on Raspberry Pi

Currently Jonathan Helmus, who is the developer of berryconda, is working on adding Python 3.7 support, if you want to see if there is an update or if you want to support him, have a look at this pull request. (update 20200623) berryconda is now inactive, This project is no longer active, no recipe will be updated and no packages will be added to the rpi channel. If you need to run Python 3.7 on your Pi right now, you can do so without Miniconda. Check if you are running the latest version of Raspbian OS called Buster. Buster ships with Python 3.7 preinstalled (source), so simply run your program with the following command:

Python3.7 app-that-needs-python37.py

I hope this solution will work for you too!

How to show Alert Message like "successfully Inserted" after inserting to DB using ASp.net MVC3

Personally I'd go with AJAX.

If you cannot switch to @Ajax... helpers, I suggest you to add a couple of properties in your model

public bool TriggerOnLoad { get; set; }
public string TriggerOnLoadMessage { get; set: }

Change your view to a strongly typed Model via

@using MyModel

Before returning the View, in case of successfull creation do something like

MyModel model = new MyModel();
model.TriggerOnLoad = true;
model.TriggerOnLoadMessage = "Object successfully created!";
return View ("Add", model);

then in your view, add this

@{
   if (model.TriggerOnLoad) {
   <text>
   <script type="text/javascript">
     alert('@Model.TriggerOnLoadMessage');
   </script>
   </text>
   }
}

Of course inside the tag you can choose to do anything you want, event declare a jQuery ready function:

$(document).ready(function () {
   alert('@Model.TriggerOnLoadMessage');
});

Please remember to reset the Model properties upon successfully alert emission.

Another nice thing about MVC is that you can actually define an EditorTemplate for all this, and then use it in your view via:

@Html.EditorFor (m => m.TriggerOnLoadMessage)

But in case you want to build up such a thing, maybe it's better to define your own C# class:

class ClientMessageNotification {
    public bool TriggerOnLoad { get; set; }
    public string TriggerOnLoadMessage { get; set: }
}

and add a ClientMessageNotification property in your model. Then write EditorTemplate / DisplayTemplate for the ClientMessageNotification class and you're done. Nice, clean, and reusable.

jQuery AutoComplete Trigger Change Event

The programmatically trigger to call the autocomplete.change event is via a namespaced trigger on the source select element.

$("#CompanyList").trigger("blur.autocomplete");

Within version 1.8 of jquery UI..

.bind( "blur.autocomplete", function( event ) {
    if ( self.options.disabled ) {
        return;
    }

    clearTimeout( self.searching );
    // clicks on the menu (or a button to trigger a search) will cause a blur event
    self.closing = setTimeout(function() {
        self.close( event );
        self._change( event );
    }, 150 );
});

Submit form with Enter key without submit button?

Jay Gilford's answer will work, but I think really the easiest way is to just slap a display: none; on a submit button in the form.

How do you develop Java Servlets using Eclipse?

You need to install a plugin, There is a free one from the eclipse foundation called the Web Tools Platform. It has all the development functionality that you'll need.

You can get the Java EE Edition of eclipse with has it pre-installed.

To create and run your first servlet:

  1. New... Project... Dynamic Web Project.
  2. Right click the project... New Servlet.
  3. Write some code in the doGet() method.
  4. Find the servers view in the Java EE perspective, it's usually one of the tabs at the bottom.
  5. Right click in there and select new Server.
  6. Select Tomcat X.X and a wizard will point you to finding the installation.
  7. Right click the server you just created and select Add and Remove... and add your created web project.
  8. Right click your servlet and select Run > Run on Server...

That should do it for you. You can use ant to build here if that's what you'd like but eclipse will actually do the build and automatically deploy the changes to the server. With Tomcat you might have to restart it every now and again depending on the change.

How to check that an element is in a std::set?

In C++20 we'll finally get std::set::contains method.

    if(example.contains("panic")) {
        std::cout << "Found\n";
    } else {
        std::cout << "Not found\n";
    }
}

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request

You should look for the error in the file error_log in the log directory. Maybe there are differences between your local and server configuration (db user/password etc.etc.)

usually the log file is in

/var/log/apache2/error.log

or

/var/log/httpd/error.log

Run Command Prompt Commands

Though technically this doesn't directly answer question posed, it does answer the question of how to do what the original poster wanted to do: combine files. If anything, this is a post to help newbies understand what Instance Hunter and Konstantin are talking about.

This is the method I use to combine files (in this case a jpg and a zip). Note that I create a buffer that gets filled with the content of the zip file (in small chunks rather than in one big read operation), and then the buffer gets written to the back of the jpg file until the end of the zip file is reached:

private void CombineFiles(string jpgFileName, string zipFileName)
{
    using (Stream original = new FileStream(jpgFileName, FileMode.Append))
    {

Converting NumPy array into Python List structure?

tolist() works fine even if encountered a nested array, say a pandas DataFrame;

my_list = [0,1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2,1,0]
my_dt = pd.DataFrame(my_list)
new_list = [i[0] for i in my_dt.values.tolist()]

print(type(my_list),type(my_dt),type(new_list))

Class type check in TypeScript

You can use the instanceof operator for this. From MDN:

The instanceof operator tests whether the prototype property of a constructor appears anywhere in the prototype chain of an object.

If you don't know what prototypes and prototype chains are I highly recommend looking it up. Also here is a JS (TS works similar in this respect) example which might clarify the concept:

_x000D_
_x000D_
    class Animal {_x000D_
        name;_x000D_
    _x000D_
        constructor(name) {_x000D_
            this.name = name;_x000D_
        }_x000D_
    }_x000D_
    _x000D_
    const animal = new Animal('fluffy');_x000D_
    _x000D_
    // true because Animal in on the prototype chain of animal_x000D_
    console.log(animal instanceof Animal); // true_x000D_
    // Proof that Animal is on the prototype chain_x000D_
    console.log(Object.getPrototypeOf(animal) === Animal.prototype); // true_x000D_
    _x000D_
    // true because Object in on the prototype chain of animal_x000D_
    console.log(animal instanceof Object); _x000D_
    // Proof that Object is on the prototype chain_x000D_
    console.log(Object.getPrototypeOf(Animal.prototype) === Object.prototype); // true_x000D_
    _x000D_
    console.log(animal instanceof Function); // false, Function not on prototype chain_x000D_
    _x000D_
    
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

The prototype chain in this example is:

animal > Animal.prototype > Object.prototype

Finding the next available id in MySQL

you said:

my id coloumn is auto increment i have to get the id and convert it to another base.So i need to get the next id before insert cause converted code will be inserted too.

what you're asking for is very dangerous and will lead to a race condition. if your code is run twice at the same time by different users, they will both get 6 and their updates or inserts will step all over each other.

i suggest that you instead INSERT in to the table, get the auto_increment value using LAST_INSERT_ID(), and then UPDATE the row to set whatever value you have that depends on the auto_increment value.

EL access a map value by Integer key

Just another helpful hint in addition to the above comment would be when you have a string value contained in some variable such as a request parameter. In this case, passing this in will also result in JSTL keying the value of say "1" as a sting and as such no match being found in a Map hashmap.

One way to get around this is to do something like this.

<c:set var="longKey" value="${param.selectedIndex + 0}"/>

This will now be treated as a Long object and then has a chance to match an object when it is contained withing the map Map or whatever.

Then, continue as usual with something like

${map[longKey]}

Complete list of reasons why a css file might not be working

  1. I had the same problem, and I used the UTF-8 coding for both of my files as follows:

    add @charset "UTF-8"; in CSS file and <meta charset="UTF-8"> under <head> tag in HTML file. and it worked for me.

    it makes the same encoding for both the files i.e HTML and CSS.

    You can also do the same for "UTF-16" encoding.

  2. If it is still not working check for the <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"/> under <head> tag in HTML File where you should mention type="text/css"

How to navigate to a section of a page

Why check both isset() and !empty()

"Empty": only works on variables. Empty can mean different things for different variable types (check manual: http://php.net/manual/en/function.empty.php).

"isset": checks if the variable exists and checks for a true NULL or false value. Can be unset by calling "unset". Once again, check the manual.

Use of either one depends of the variable type you are using.

I would say, it's safer to check for both, because you are checking first of all if the variable exists, and if it isn't really NULL or empty.

create a white rgba / CSS3

The code you have is a white with low opacity.

If something white with a low opacity is above something black, you end up with a lighter shade of gray. Above red? Lighter red, etc. That is how opacity works.

Here is a simple demo.

If you want it to look 'more white', make it less opaque:

background:rgba(255,255,255, 0.9);

Integer value in TextView

just found an advance and most currently used method to set string in textView

textView.setText(String.valueOf(YourIntegerNumber));

CSS background image in :after element

A couple things

(a) you cant have both background-color and background, background will always win. in the example below, i combined them through shorthand, but this will produce the color only as a fallback method when the image does not show.

(b) no-scroll does not work, i don't believe it is a valid property of a background-image. try something like fixed:

.button:after {
    content: "";
    width: 30px;
    height: 30px;
    background:red url("http://www.gentleface.com/i/free_toolbar_icons_16x16_black.png") no-repeat -30px -50px fixed;
    top: 10px;
    right: 5px;
    position: absolute;
    display: inline-block;
}

I updated your jsFiddle to this and it showed the image.

Git checkout - switching back to HEAD

You can stash (save the changes in temporary box) then, back to master branch HEAD.

$ git add .
$ git stash
$ git checkout master

Jump Over Commits Back and Forth:

  • Go to a specific commit-sha.

      $ git checkout <commit-sha>
    
  • If you have uncommitted changes here then, you can checkout to a new branch | Add | Commit | Push the current branch to the remote.

      # checkout a new branch, add, commit, push
      $ git checkout -b <branch-name>
      $ git add .
      $ git commit -m 'Commit message'
      $ git push origin HEAD          # push the current branch to remote 
    
      $ git checkout master           # back to master branch now
    
  • If you have changes in the specific commit and don't want to keep the changes, you can do stash or reset then checkout to master (or, any other branch).

      # stash
      $ git add -A
      $ git stash
      $ git checkout master
    
      # reset
      $ git reset --hard HEAD
      $ git checkout master
    
  • After checking out a specific commit if you have no uncommitted change(s) then, just back to master or other branch.

      $ git status          # see the changes
      $ git checkout master
    
      # or, shortcut
      $ git checkout -      # back to the previous state

Where are $_SESSION variables stored?

As Mr. Taylor pointed out this is usually set in php.ini. Usually they are stored as files in a specific directory.

Oracle DateTime in Where Clause?

Yes: TIME_CREATED contains a date and a time. Use TRUNC to strip the time:

SELECT EMP_NAME, DEPT
FROM EMPLOYEE
WHERE TRUNC(TIME_CREATED) = TO_DATE('26/JAN/2011','dd/mon/yyyy')

UPDATE:
As Dave Costa points out in the comment below, this will prevent Oracle from using the index of the column TIME_CREATED if it exists. An alternative approach without this problem is this:

SELECT EMP_NAME, DEPT
FROM EMPLOYEE
WHERE TIME_CREATED >= TO_DATE('26/JAN/2011','dd/mon/yyyy') 
      AND TIME_CREATED < TO_DATE('26/JAN/2011','dd/mon/yyyy') + 1

How can I count all the lines of code in a directory recursively?

None of the answers so far gets at the problem of filenames with spaces.

Additionally, all that use xargs are subject to fail if the total length of paths in the tree exceeds the shell environment size limit (defaults to a few megabytes in Linux).

Here is one that fixes these problems in a pretty direct manner. The subshell takes care of files with spaces. The awk totals the stream of individual file wc outputs, so it ought never to run out of space. It also restricts the exec to files only (skipping directories):

find . -type f -name '*.php' -exec bash -c 'wc -l "$0"' {} \; | awk '{s+=$1} END {print s}'

How can I validate google reCAPTCHA v2 using javascript/jQuery?

I thought all of them were great but I had troubles actually getting them to work with javascript and c#. Here is what I did. Hope it helps someone else.

//put this under the script tag
<script>
var isCaptchaValid = false;
function doCaptchaValidate(source, args) {
    args.IsValid = isCaptchaValid;
}
var verifyCallback = function (response) {
    isCaptchaValid = true;
};
</script>

//retrieved from google and added callback
<div class="g-recaptcha" data-sitekey="sitekey" data-callback="verifyCallback">

//created a custom validator and added error message and ClientValidationFucntion
<asp:CustomValidator runat="server" ID="CustomValidator1" ValidationGroup="Initial" ErrorMessage="Captcha Required" ClientValidationFunction="doCaptchaValidate"/>

Get $_POST from multiple checkboxes

Set the name in the form to check_list[] and you will be able to access all the checkboxes as an array($_POST['check_list'][]).

Here's a little sample as requested:

<form action="test.php" method="post">
    <input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 1">
    <input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 2">
    <input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 3">
    <input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 4">
    <input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 5">
    <input type="submit" />
</form>
<?php
if(!empty($_POST['check_list'])) {
    foreach($_POST['check_list'] as $check) {
            echo $check; //echoes the value set in the HTML form for each checked checkbox.
                         //so, if I were to check 1, 3, and 5 it would echo value 1, value 3, value 5.
                         //in your case, it would echo whatever $row['Report ID'] is equivalent to.
    }
}
?>

Build fat static library (device + simulator) using Xcode and SDK 4+

XCode 12 update:

If you run xcodebuild without -arch param, XCode 12 will build simulator library with architecture "arm64 x86_64" as default.

Then run xcrun -sdk iphoneos lipo -create -output will conflict, because arm64 architecture exist in simulator and also device library.

I fork script from Adam git and fix it.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'onclick' of null

Try to put all your <script ...></script> tags before the </body> tag. Perhaps the js is trying to access an object of the DOM before it's built up.

Static constant string (class member)

This is just extra information, but if you really want the string in a header file, try something like:

class foo
{
public:
    static const std::string& RECTANGLE(void)
    {
        static const std::string str = "rectangle";

        return str;
    }
};

Though I doubt that's recommended.

Is there a TRY CATCH command in Bash

bash does not abort the running execution in case something detects an error state (unless you set the -e flag). Programming languages which offer try/catch do this in order to inhibit a "bailing out" because of this special situation (hence typically called "exception").

In the bash, instead, only the command in question will exit with an exit code greater than 0, indicating that error state. You can check for that of course, but since there is no automatic bailing out of anything, a try/catch does not make sense. It is just lacking that context.

You can, however, simulate a bailing out by using sub shells which can terminate at a point you decide:

(
  echo "Do one thing"
  echo "Do another thing"
  if some_condition
  then
    exit 3  # <-- this is our simulated bailing out
  fi
  echo "Do yet another thing"
  echo "And do a last thing"
)   # <-- here we arrive after the simulated bailing out, and $? will be 3 (exit code)
if [ $? = 3 ]
then
  echo "Bail out detected"
fi

Instead of that some_condition with an if you also can just try a command, and in case it fails (has an exit code greater than 0), bail out:

(
  echo "Do one thing"
  echo "Do another thing"
  some_command || exit 3
  echo "Do yet another thing"
  echo "And do a last thing"
)
...

Unfortunately, using this technique you are restricted to 255 different exit codes (1..255) and no decent exception objects can be used.

If you need more information to pass along with your simulated exception, you can use the stdout of the subshells, but that is a bit complicated and maybe another question ;-)

Using the above mentioned -e flag to the shell you can even strip that explicit exit statement:

(
  set -e
  echo "Do one thing"
  echo "Do another thing"
  some_command
  echo "Do yet another thing"
  echo "And do a last thing"
)
...

How to correctly implement custom iterators and const_iterators?

  • Choose type of iterator which fits your container: input, output, forward etc.
  • Use base iterator classes from standard library. For example, std::iterator with random_access_iterator_tag.These base classes define all type definitions required by STL and do other work.
  • To avoid code duplication iterator class should be a template class and be parametrized by "value type", "pointer type", "reference type" or all of them (depends on implementation). For example:

    // iterator class is parametrized by pointer type
    template <typename PointerType> class MyIterator {
        // iterator class definition goes here
    };
    
    typedef MyIterator<int*> iterator_type;
    typedef MyIterator<const int*> const_iterator_type;
    

    Notice iterator_type and const_iterator_type type definitions: they are types for your non-const and const iterators.

See Also: standard library reference

EDIT: std::iterator is deprecated since C++17. See a relating discussion here.

pros and cons between os.path.exists vs os.path.isdir

Most of the time, it is the same.

But, path can exist physically whereas path.exists() returns False. This is the case if os.stat() returns False for this file.

If path exists physically, then path.isdir() will always return True. This does not depend on platform.

Make the console wait for a user input to close

System.out.print("Press Enter to quit...");
input.nextLine();

Batch command date and time in file name

I found the best solution for me, after reading all your answers:

set d=%t:~10,4%%t:~7,2%%t:~4,2%_%t:~15,2%%t:~18,2%%t:~21,2%
echo hello>"Archive_%d%"

If AM I get 20160915_ 150101 (with a leading space and time).

If PM I get 20160915_2150101.

Sort matrix according to first column in R

Be aware that if you want to have values in the reverse order, you can easily do so:

> example = matrix(c(1,1,1,4,3,3,2,349,393,392,459,49,32,94), ncol = 2)
> example[order(example[,1], decreasing = TRUE),]
     [,1] [,2]
[1,]    4  459
[2,]    3   49
[3,]    3   32
[4,]    2   94
[5,]    1  349
[6,]    1  393
[7,]    1  392

Skip certain tables with mysqldump

Building on the answer from @Brian-Fisher and answering the comments of some of the people on this post, I have a bunch of huge (and unnecessary) tables in my database so I wanted to skip their contents when copying, but keep the structure:

mysqldump -h <host> -u <username> -p <schema> --no-data > db-structure.sql
mysqldump -h <host> -u <username> -p <schema> --no-create-info --ignore-table=schema.table1 --ignore-table=schema.table2 > db-data.sql

The resulting two files are structurally sound but the dumped data is now ~500MB rather than 9GB, much better for me. I can now import these two files into another database for testing purposes without having to worry about manipulating 9GB of data or running out of disk space.

Angular 2 two way binding using ngModel is not working

Angular 2 Beta

This answer is for those who use Javascript for angularJS v.2.0 Beta.

To use ngModel in your view you should tell the angular's compiler that you are using a directive called ngModel.

How?

To use ngModel there are two libraries in angular2 Beta, and they are ng.common.FORM_DIRECTIVES and ng.common.NgModel.

Actually ng.common.FORM_DIRECTIVES is nothing but group of directives which are useful when you are creating a form. It includes NgModel directive also.

app.myApp = ng.core.Component({
    selector: 'my-app',
    templateUrl: 'App/Pages/myApp.html',
    directives: [ng.common.NgModel] // specify all your directives here
}).Class({
    constructor: function () {
        this.myVar = {};
        this.myVar.text = "Testing";
    },

});

javascript return true or return false when and how to use it?

returning true or false indicates that whether execution should continue or stop right there. So just an example

<input type="button" onclick="return func();" />

Now if func() is defined like this

function func()
{
 // do something
return false;
}

the click event will never get executed. On the contrary if return true is written then the click event will always be executed.

How to check for file existence

Check out Pathname and in particular Pathname#exist?.

File and its FileTest module are perhaps simpler/more direct, but I find Pathname a nicer interface in general.

How can I get the current date and time in UTC or GMT in Java?

With:

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();

Then cal have the current date and time.
You also could get the current Date and Time for timezone with:

Calendar cal2 = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT-2"));

You could ask cal.get(Calendar.DATE); or other Calendar constant about others details.
Date and Timestamp are deprecated in Java. Calendar class it isn't.

Including another class in SCSS

Combine Mixin with Extend

I just stumbled upon a combination of Mixin and Extend:

reused blocks:

.block1 { box-shadow: 0 5px 10px #000; }

.block2 { box-shadow: 5px 0 10px #000; }

.block3 { box-shadow: 0 0 1px #000; }

dynamic mixin:

@mixin customExtend($class){ @extend .#{$class}; }

use mixin:

like: @include customExtend(block1);

h1 {color: fff; @include customExtend(block2);}

Sass will compile only the mixins content to the extended blocks, which makes it able to combine blocks without generating duplicate code. The Extend logic only puts the classname of the Mixin import location in the block1, ..., ... {box-shadow: 0 5px 10px #000;}

Java Constructor Inheritance

Because constructors are an implementation detail - they're not something that a user of an interface/superclass can actually invoke at all. By the time they get an instance, it's already been constructed; and vice-versa, at the time you construct an object there's by definition no variable it's currently assigned to.

Think about what it would mean to force all subclasses to have an inherited constructor. I argue it's clearer to pass the variables in directly than for the class to "magically" have a constructor with a certain number of arguments just because it's parent does.

How to add a new line in textarea element?

<textarea cols='60' rows='8'>This is my statement one.

This is my statement2</textarea>

Fiddle showing that it works: http://jsfiddle.net/trott/5vu28/.

If you really want this to be on a single line in the source file, you could insert the HTML character references for a line feed and a carriage return as shown in the answer from @Bakudan:

_x000D_
_x000D_
  <textarea cols='60' rows='8'>This is my statement one.&#13;&#10;This is my statement2</textarea>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Can we rely on String.isEmpty for checking null condition on a String in Java?

You can't use String.isEmpty() if it is null. Best is to have your own method to check null or empty.

public static boolean isBlankOrNull(String str) {
    return (str == null || "".equals(str.trim()));
}

Fine control over the font size in Seaborn plots for academic papers

You are right. This is a badly documented issue. But you can change the font size parameter (by opposition to font scale) directly after building the plot. Check the following example:

import seaborn as sns
tips = sns.load_dataset("tips")

b = sns.boxplot(x=tips["total_bill"])
b.axes.set_title("Title",fontsize=50)
b.set_xlabel("X Label",fontsize=30)
b.set_ylabel("Y Label",fontsize=20)
b.tick_params(labelsize=5)
sns.plt.show()

, which results in this:

Different font sizes for different labels

To make it consistent in between plots I think you just need to make sure the DPI is the same. By the way it' also a possibility to customize a bit the rc dictionaries since "font.size" parameter exists but I'm not too sure how to do that.

NOTE: And also I don't really understand why they changed the name of the font size variables for axis labels and ticks. Seems a bit un-intuitive.

Converting JSON String to Dictionary Not List

I am working with a Python code for a REST API, so this is for those who are working on similar projects.

I extract data from an URL using a POST request and the raw output is JSON. For some reason the output is already a dictionary, not a list, and I'm able to refer to the nested dictionary keys right away, like this:

datapoint_1 = json1_data['datapoints']['datapoint_1']

where datapoint_1 is inside the datapoints dictionary.

inject bean reference into a Quartz job in Spring?

A simple solution is to set the spring bean in the Job Data Map and then retrieve the bean in the job class, for instance

// the class sets the configures the MyJob class 
    SchedulerFactory sf = new StdSchedulerFactory();
    Scheduler sched = sf.getScheduler();
    Date startTime = DateBuilder.nextGivenSecondDate(null, 15);
    JobDetail job = newJob(MyJob.class).withIdentity("job1", "group1").build();
    job.getJobDataMap().put("processDataDAO", processDataDAO);

`

 // this is MyJob Class
    ProcessDataDAO processDataDAO = (ProcessDataDAO) jec.getMergedJobDataMap().get("processDataDAO");

Get selected row item in DataGrid WPF

use your Model class to get row values selected from datagrid like,

        XDocument xmlDoc = XDocument.Load(filepath);

        if (tablet_DG.SelectedValue == null)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("select any record from list..!", "select atleast one record", MessageBoxButton.OKCancel, MessageBoxImage.Warning);
        }
        else
        {
            try
            {
                string tabletID = "";

                 /*here i have used my model class named as TabletMode*/

                var row_list = (TabletModel)tablet_DG.SelectedItem; 
                 tabletID= row_list.TabletID;

                var items = from item in xmlDoc.Descendants("Tablet")
                            where item.Element("TabletID").Value == tabletID
                            select item;

                foreach (var item in items)
                {
                    item.SetElementValue("Instance",row_list.Instance);
                    item.SetElementValue("Database",row_list.Database);
                }

                xmlDoc.Save(filepath);
                MessageBox.Show("Details Updated..!"
                + Environment.NewLine + "TabletId: " +row_list.TabletID + Environment.NewLine
                + "Instance:" + row_list.Instance + Environment.NewLine + "Database:" + row_list.Database, "", MessageBoxButton.YesNoCancel, MessageBoxImage.Information);
            }

            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(ex.StackTrace);
            }
        }

Conflict with dependency 'com.android.support:support-annotations' in project ':app'. Resolved versions for app (26.1.0) and test app (27.1.1) differ.

This is due a conflict of versions, to solve it, just force an update of your support-annotations version, adding this line on your module: app gradle

implementation ('com.android.support:support-annotations:27.1.1')

Hope this solves your issue ;)

Edit

Almost forgot, you can declare a single extra property (https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/writing_build_scripts.html#sec:extra_properties) for the version, go to your project (or your top) gradle file, and declare your support, or just for this example, annotation version var

ext.annotation_version = "27.1.1"

Then in your module gradle replace it with:

implementation ("com.android.support:support-annotations:$annotation_version")

This is very similar to the @emadabel solution, which is a good alternative for doing it, but without the block, or the rootproject prefix.

Wait for all promises to resolve

You can use "await" in an "async function".

app.controller('MainCtrl', async function($scope, $q, $timeout) {
  ...
  var all = await $q.all([one.promise, two.promise, three.promise]); 
  ...
}

NOTE: I'm not 100% sure you can call an async function from a non-async function and have the right results.

That said this wouldn't ever be used on a website. But for load-testing/integration test...maybe.

Example code:

_x000D_
_x000D_
async function waitForIt(printMe) {_x000D_
  console.log(printMe);_x000D_
  console.log("..."+await req());_x000D_
  console.log("Legendary!")_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
function req() {_x000D_
  _x000D_
  var promise = new Promise(resolve => {_x000D_
    setTimeout(() => {_x000D_
      resolve("DARY!");_x000D_
    }, 2000);_x000D_
    _x000D_
  });_x000D_
_x000D_
    return promise;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
waitForIt("Legen-Wait For It");
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Set variable in jinja

{{ }} tells the template to print the value, this won't work in expressions like you're trying to do. Instead, use the {% set %} template tag and then assign the value the same way you would in normal python code.

{% set testing = 'it worked' %}
{% set another = testing %}
{{ another }}

Result:

it worked

Is there a sleep function in JavaScript?

function sleep(delay) {
    var start = new Date().getTime();
    while (new Date().getTime() < start + delay);
}

This code blocks for the specified duration. This is CPU hogging code. This is different from a thread blocking itself and releasing CPU cycles to be utilized by another thread. No such thing is going on here. Do not use this code, it's a very bad idea.

error: RPC failed; curl transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining

With me this problem occurred because the proxy configuration. I added the ip git server in the proxy exception. The git server was local, but the no_proxy environment variable was not set correctly.

I used this command to identify the problem:

#Linux:
export GIT_TRACE_PACKET=1
export GIT_TRACE=1
export GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1

#Windows
set GIT_TRACE_PACKET=1
set GIT_TRACE=1
set GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1

In return there was the "Proxy-Authorization" as the git server was spot should not go through the proxy. But the real problem was the size of the files defined by the proxy rules

How to decorate a class?

No one has explained that you can dynamically define classes. So you can have a decorator that defines (and returns) a subclass:

def addId(cls):

    class AddId(cls):

        def __init__(self, id, *args, **kargs):
            super(AddId, self).__init__(*args, **kargs)
            self.__id = id

        def getId(self):
            return self.__id

    return AddId

Which can be used in Python 2 (the comment from Blckknght which explains why you should continue to do this in 2.6+) like this:

class Foo:
    pass

FooId = addId(Foo)

And in Python 3 like this (but be careful to use super() in your classes):

@addId
class Foo:
    pass

So you can have your cake and eat it - inheritance and decorators!

Content type 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8' not supported for @RequestBody MultiValueMap

Add a header to your request to set content type to application/json

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -s -XPOST http://your.domain.com/ -d YOUR_JSON_BODY

this way spring knows how to parse the content.

Import SQL file by command line in Windows 7

I use mysql -u root -ppassword databasename < filename.sql in batch process. For an individual file, I like to use source more because it shows the progress and any errors like

Query OK, 6717 rows affected (0.18 sec)
Records: 6717  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0
  1. Log in to MySQL using mysql -u root -ppassword
  2. In MySQL, change the database you want to import in: mysql>use databasename;

    • This is very important otherwise it will import to the default database
  3. Import the SQL file using source command: mysql>source path\to\the\file\filename.sql;

C++11 thread-safe queue

This is probably how you should do it:

void push(std::string&& filename)
{
    {
        std::lock_guard<std::mutex> lock(qMutex);

        q.push(std::move(filename));
    }

    populatedNotifier.notify_one();
}

bool try_pop(std::string& filename, std::chrono::milliseconds timeout)
{
    std::unique_lock<std::mutex> lock(qMutex);

    if(!populatedNotifier.wait_for(lock, timeout, [this] { return !q.empty(); }))
        return false;

    filename = std::move(q.front());
    q.pop();

    return true;    
}

How to pass variable from jade template file to a script file?

See this question: JADE + EXPRESS: Iterating over object in inline JS code (client-side)?

I'm having the same problem. Jade does not pass local variables in (or do any templating at all) to javascript scripts, it simply passes the entire block in as literal text. If you use the local variables 'address' and 'port' in your Jade file above the script tag they should show up.

Possible solutions are listed in the question I linked to above, but you can either: - pass every line in as unescaped text (!= at the beginning of every line), and simply put "-" before every line of javascript that uses a local variable, or: - Pass variables in through a dom element and access through JQuery (ugly)

Is there no better way? It seems the creators of Jade do not want multiline javascript support, as shown by this thread in GitHub: https://github.com/visionmedia/jade/pull/405

Convert JSON array to Python list

import json

array = '{"fruits": ["apple", "banana", "orange"]}'
data  = json.loads(array)
print data['fruits']
# the print displays:
# [u'apple', u'banana', u'orange']

You had everything you needed. data will be a dict, and data['fruits'] will be a list

How to copy a file to another path?

Yes. It will work: FileInfo.CopyTo Method

Use this method to allow or prevent overwriting of an existing file. Use the CopyTo method to prevent overwriting of an existing file by default.

All other responses are correct, but since you asked for FileInfo, here's a sample:

FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(@"c:\yourfile.ext");
fi.CopyTo(@"d:\anotherfile.ext", true); // existing file will be overwritten

Start and stop a timer PHP

Also you can use HRTime package. It has a class StopWatch.

How to find time complexity of an algorithm

When you're analyzing code, you have to analyse it line by line, counting every operation/recognizing time complexity, in the end, you have to sum it to get whole picture.

For example, you can have one simple loop with linear complexity, but later in that same program you can have a triple loop that has cubic complexity, so your program will have cubic complexity. Function order of growth comes into play right here.

Let's look at what are possibilities for time complexity of an algorithm, you can see order of growth I mentioned above:

  • Constant time has an order of growth 1, for example: a = b + c.

  • Logarithmic time has an order of growth LogN, it usually occurs when you're dividing something in half (binary search, trees, even loops), or multiplying something in same way.

  • Linear, order of growth is N, for example

    int p = 0;
    for (int i = 1; i < N; i++)
      p = p + 2;
    
  • Linearithmic, order of growth is n*logN, usually occurs in divide and conquer algorithms.

  • Cubic, order of growth N^3, classic example is a triple loop where you check all triplets:

    int x = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
       for (int j = 0; j < N; j++)
          for (int k = 0; k < N; k++)
              x = x + 2
    
  • Exponential, order of growth 2^N, usually occurs when you do exhaustive search, for example check subsets of some set.

Best Way to View Generated Source of Webpage?

alert(document.documentElement.outerHTML);

Is there a good reason I see VARCHAR(255) used so often (as opposed to another length)?

An unsigned 1 byte number can contain the range [0-255] inclusive. So when you see 255, it is mostly because programmers think in base 10 (get the joke?) :)

Actually, for a while, 255 was the largest size you could give a VARCHAR in MySQL, and there are advantages to using VARCHAR over TEXT with indexing and other issues.

How to get the current time in milliseconds in C Programming

If you're on a Unix-like system, use gettimeofday and convert the result from microseconds to milliseconds.

Assign null to a SqlParameter

Consider using the Nullable(T) structure available. It'll let you only set values if you have them, and your SQL Command objects will recognize the nullable value and process accordingly with no hassle on your end.

How do you create a remote Git branch?

Easiest Solution... Drumm Roll... git version 2.10.1 (Apple Git-78)

1) git checkout -b localBranchNameThatDoesNotExistInRemote

2) Do your changes, and do a git commit 

3) git push origin localBranchNameThatDoesNotExistInRemote --force

N.B. - The branch you just created in your local environment, and the remote non-existing branch where you are trying to push, must have the same name.

What is the purpose of "pip install --user ..."?

Other answers mention site.USER_SITE as where Python packages get placed. If you're looking for binaries, these go in {site.USER_BASE}/bin.

If you want to add this directory to your shell's search path, use:

export PATH="${PATH}:$(python3 -c 'import site; print(site.USER_BASE)')/bin"

Global variables in c#.net

Use a public static class and access it from anywhere.

public static class MyGlobals {
    public const string Prefix = "ID_"; // cannot change
    public static int Total = 5; // can change because not const
}

used like so, from master page or anywhere:

string strStuff = MyGlobals.Prefix + "something";
textBox1.Text = "total of " + MyGlobals.Total.ToString();

You don't need to make an instance of the class; in fact you can't because it's static. new Just use it directly. All members inside a static class must also be static. The string Prefix isn't marked static because const is implicitly static by nature.

The static class can be anywhere in your project. It doesn't have to be part of Global.asax or any particular page because it's "global" (or at least as close as we can get to that concept in object-oriented terms.)

You can make as many static classes as you like and name them whatever you want.


Sometimes programmers like to group their constants by using nested static classes. For example,

public static class Globals {
    public static class DbProcedures {
        public const string Sp_Get_Addresses = "dbo.[Get_Addresses]";
        public const string Sp_Get_Names = "dbo.[Get_First_Names]";
    }
    public static class Commands {
        public const string Go = "go";
        public const string SubmitPage = "submit_now";
    }
}

and access them like so:

MyDbCommand proc = new MyDbCommand( Globals.DbProcedures.Sp_Get_Addresses );
proc.Execute();
//or
string strCommand = Globals.Commands.Go;

Scanning Java annotations at runtime

Is it too late to answer. I would say, its better to go by Libraries like ClassPathScanningCandidateComponentProvider or like Scannotations

But even after somebody wants to try some hands on it with classLoader, I have written some on my own to print the annotations from classes in a package:

public class ElementScanner {

public void scanElements(){
    try {
    //Get the package name from configuration file
    String packageName = readConfig();

    //Load the classLoader which loads this class.
    ClassLoader classLoader = getClass().getClassLoader();

    //Change the package structure to directory structure
    String packagePath  = packageName.replace('.', '/');
    URL urls = classLoader.getResource(packagePath);

    //Get all the class files in the specified URL Path.
    File folder = new File(urls.getPath());
    File[] classes = folder.listFiles();

    int size = classes.length;
    List<Class<?>> classList = new ArrayList<Class<?>>();

    for(int i=0;i<size;i++){
        int index = classes[i].getName().indexOf(".");
        String className = classes[i].getName().substring(0, index);
        String classNamePath = packageName+"."+className;
        Class<?> repoClass;
        repoClass = Class.forName(classNamePath);
        Annotation[] annotations = repoClass.getAnnotations();
        for(int j =0;j<annotations.length;j++){
            System.out.println("Annotation in class "+repoClass.getName()+ " is "+annotations[j].annotationType().getName());
        }
        classList.add(repoClass);
    }
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

/**
 * Unmarshall the configuration file
 * @return
 */
public String readConfig(){
    try{
        URL url = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("WEB-INF/config.xml");
        JAXBContext jContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(RepositoryConfig.class);
         Unmarshaller um =  jContext.createUnmarshaller();
         RepositoryConfig rc = (RepositoryConfig) um.unmarshal(new File(url.getFile()));
         return rc.getRepository().getPackageName();
        }catch(Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    return null;

}
}

And in config File, you put the package name and unmarshall it to a class .

Jquery function return value

I'm not entirely sure of the general purpose of the function, but you could always do this:

function getMachine(color, qty) {
    var retval;
    $("#getMachine li").each(function() {
        var thisArray = $(this).text().split("~");
        if(thisArray[0] == color&& qty>= parseInt(thisArray[1]) && qty<= parseInt(thisArray[2])) {
            retval = thisArray[3];
            return false;
        }
    });
    return retval;
}

var retval = getMachine(color, qty);

AngularJS UI Router - change url without reloading state

If you need only change url but prevent change state:

Change location with (add .replace if you want to replace in history):

this.$location.path([Your path]).replace();

Prevent redirect to your state:

$transitions.onBefore({}, function($transition$) {
 if ($transition$.$to().name === '[state name]') {
   return false;
 }
});

GetType used in PowerShell, difference between variables

Select-Object creates a new psobject and copies the properties you requested to it. You can verify this with GetType():

PS > $a.GetType().fullname
System.DayOfWeek

PS > $b.GetType().fullname
System.Management.Automation.PSCustomObject

How can I show/hide component with JSF?

One obvious solution would be to use javascript (which is not JSF). To implement this by JSF you should use AJAX. In this example, I use a radio button group to show and hide two set of components. In the back bean, I define a boolean switch.

private boolean switchComponents;

public boolean isSwitchComponents() {
    return switchComponents;
}

public void setSwitchComponents(boolean switchComponents) {
    this.switchComponents = switchComponents;
}

When the switch is true, one set of components will be shown and when it is false the other set will be shown.

 <h:selectOneRadio value="#{backbean.switchValue}">
   <f:selectItem itemLabel="showComponentSetOne" itemValue='true'/>
   <f:selectItem itemLabel="showComponentSetTwo" itemValue='false'/>
   <f:ajax event="change" execute="@this" render="componentsRoot"/>
 </h:selectOneRadio>


<H:panelGroup id="componentsRoot">
     <h:panelGroup rendered="#{backbean.switchValue}">
       <!--switchValue to be shown on switch value == true-->
     </h:panelGroup>

   <h:panelGroup rendered="#{!backbean.switchValue}">
      <!--switchValue to be shown on switch value == false-->
   </h:panelGroup>
</H:panelGroup>

Note: on the ajax event we render components root. because components which are not rendered in the first place can't be re-rendered on the ajax event.

Also, note that if the "componentsRoot" and radio buttons are under different component hierarchy. you should reference it from the root (form root).

How to create empty data frame with column names specified in R?

Just create a data.frame with 0 length variables

eg

nodata <- data.frame(x= numeric(0), y= integer(0), z = character(0))
str(nodata)

## 'data.frame':    0 obs. of  3 variables:
##  $ x: num 
##  $ y: int 
##  $ z: Factor w/ 0 levels: 

or to create a data.frame with 5 columns named a,b,c,d,e

nodata <- as.data.frame(setNames(replicate(5,numeric(0), simplify = F), letters[1:5]))

Required attribute on multiple checkboxes with the same name?

i had the same problem, my solution was apply the required attribute to all elements

<input type="checkbox" name="checkin_days[]" required="required" value="0" /><span class="w">S</span>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkin_days[]" required="required" value="1" /><span class="w">M</span>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkin_days[]" required="required" value="2" /><span class="w">T</span>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkin_days[]" required="required" value="3" /><span class="w">W</span>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkin_days[]" required="required" value="4" /><span class="w">T</span>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkin_days[]" required="required" value="5" /><span class="w">F</span>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkin_days[]" required="required" value="6" /><span class="w">S</span>

when the user check one of the elements i remove the required attribute from all elements:

var $checkedCheckboxes = $('#recurrent_checkin :checkbox[name="checkin_days[]"]:checked'),
    $checkboxes = $('#recurrent_checkin :checkbox[name="checkin_days[]"]');

$checkboxes.click(function() {

if($checkedCheckboxes.length) {
        $checkboxes.removeAttr('required');
    } else {
        $checkboxes.attr('required', 'required');
    }

 });

Take a full page screenshot with Firefox on the command-line

Update 2018-07-23

As was just pointed out in the comments, this question was about getting a screenshot from the command line. Sorry, I just read over that. So here is the correct answer:

As of Firefox 57 you can create a screenshot in headless mode like this:

firefox -screenshot https://developer.mozilla.com

Read more in the documentation.

Update 2017-06-15

As of Firefox 55 there is Firefox Screenshots as a more flexible alternative. As of Firefox 57 Screenshots can capture a full page, too.

Original answer

Since Firefox 32 there is also a full page screenshot button in the developer tools (F12). If it is not enabled go to the developer tools settings (gear button) and choose "Take a fullpage screenshot" at the "Available Toolbox Buttons" section.

developer tools toolbar source: developer.mozilla.org

By default the screenshots are saved in the download directory. This works similar to screenshot --fullpage in the toolbar.

Maven:Non-resolvable parent POM and 'parent.relativePath' points at wrong local POM

I'm probably a bit late to the party, but I wrote the junitcategorizer for my thesis project at TOPdesk. Earlier versions indeed used a company internal Parent POM. So your problems are caused by the Parent POM not being resolvable, since it is not available to the outside world.

You can either:

  • Remove the <parent> block, but then have to configure the Surefire, Compiler and other plugins yourself
  • (Only applicable to this specific case!) Change it to point to our Open Source Parent POM by setting:
<parent>
    <groupId>com.topdesk</groupId>
    <artifactId>open-source-parent</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.0</version>
</parent>

jQuery to serialize only elements within a div

The function I use currently:

/**
 * Serializes form or any other element with jQuery.serialize
 * @param el
 */
serialize: function(el) {
    var serialized = $(el).serialize();
    if (!serialized) // not a form
        serialized = $(el).
          find('input[name],select[name],textarea[name]').serialize();
    return serialized;
}

Setting the height of a SELECT in IE

select{

If you change properties, size of select will change also in IE7.

How to get last month/year in java?

Use Joda Time Library. It is very easy to handle date, time, calender and locale with it and it will be integrated to java in version 8.

DateTime#minusMonths method would help you get previous month.

DateTime month = new DateTime().minusMonths (1); 

How do I convert a Python 3 byte-string variable into a regular string?

You had it nearly right in the last line. You want

str(bytes_string, 'utf-8')

because the type of bytes_string is bytes, the same as the type of b'abc'.

"implements Runnable" vs "extends Thread" in Java

Yes: implements Runnable is the preferred way to do it, IMO. You're not really specialising the thread's behaviour. You're just giving it something to run. That means composition is the philosophically "purer" way to go.

In practical terms, it means you can implement Runnable and extend from another class as well... and you can also implement Runnable via a lambda expression as of Java 8.

How to switch from POST to GET in PHP CURL

CURL request by default is GET, you don't have to set any options to make a GET CURL request.

Create a Date with a set timezone without using a string representation

I don't believe this is possible - there is no ability to set the timezone on a Date object after it is created.

And in a way this makes sense - conceptually (if perhaps not in implementation); per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_timestamp (emphasis mine):

Unix time, or POSIX time, is a system for describing instants in time, defined as the number of seconds elapsed since midnight Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) of Thursday, January 1, 1970.

Once you've constructed one it will represent a certain point in "real" time. The time zone is only relevant when you want to convert that abstract time point into a human-readable string.

Thus it makes sense you would only be able to change the actual time the Date represents in the constructor. Sadly it seems that there is no way to pass in an explicit timezone - and the constructor you are calling (arguably correctly) translates your "local" time variables into GMT when it stores them canonically - so there is no way to use the int, int, int constructor for GMT times.

On the plus side, it's trivial to just use the constructor that takes a String instead. You don't even have to convert the numeric month into a String (on Firefox at least), so I was hoping a naive implementation would work. However, after trying it out it works successfully in Firefox, Chrome, and Opera but fails in Konqueror ("Invalid Date") , Safari ("Invalid Date") and IE ("NaN"). I suppose you'd just have a lookup array to convert the month to a string, like so:

var months = [ '', 'January', 'February', ..., 'December'];

function createGMTDate(xiYear, xiMonth, xiDate) {
   return new Date(months[xiMonth] + ' ' + xiDate + ', ' + xiYear + ' 00:00:00 GMT');
}

How to know if two arrays have the same values

Our aim is basically to check whether 2 arrays are equal sets. set is the mathematically defined set. Fastest sorting asymptotically takes O(nlog(n)) time. So If you sort an array, it would take at least O(nlog(n)) time. But you can do this task faster, which asymptotically takes O(n) time (average case not worst case) with a dictionary data structure. In JS, a dictionary is simply an object with keys and values.

/** assumes array elements are primitive types
* check whether 2 arrays are equal sets.
* @param  {} a1 is an array
* @param  {} a2 is an array
*/
function areArraysEqualSets(a1, a2) {
  const superSet = {};
  for (const i of a1) {
    const e = i + typeof i;
    superSet[e] = 1;
  }

  for (const i of a2) {
    const e = i + typeof i;
    if (!superSet[e]) {
      return false;
    }
    superSet[e] = 2;
  }

  for (let e in superSet) {
    if (superSet[e] === 1) {
      return false;
    }
  }

  return true;
}

Note that this function works with arrays of primitive types and assumes a1 and a2 are arrays.

Sort array of objects by single key with date value

  • Use Array.sort() to sort an array
  • Clone array using spread operator () to make the function pure
  • Sort by desired key (updated_at)
  • Convert date string to date object
  • Array.sort() works by subtracting two properties from current and next item if it is a number / object on which you can perform arrhythmic operations
const input = [
  {
    updated_at: '2012-01-01T06:25:24Z',
    foo: 'bar',
  },
  {
    updated_at: '2012-01-09T11:25:13Z',
    foo: 'bar',
  },
  {
    updated_at: '2012-01-05T04:13:24Z',
    foo: 'bar',
  }
];

const sortByUpdatedAt = (items) => [...items].sort((itemA, itemB) => new Date(itemA.updated_at) - new Date(itemB.updated_at));

const output = sortByUpdatedAt(input);

console.log(input);
/*
[ { updated_at: '2012-01-01T06:25:24Z', foo: 'bar' }, 
  { updated_at: '2012-01-09T11:25:13Z', foo: 'bar' }, 
  { updated_at: '2012-01-05T04:13:24Z', foo: 'bar' } ]
*/
console.log(output)
/*
[ { updated_at: '2012-01-01T06:25:24Z', foo: 'bar' }, 
  { updated_at: '2012-01-05T04:13:24Z', foo: 'bar' }, 
  { updated_at: '2012-01-09T11:25:13Z', foo: 'bar' } ]
*/

How to make a node.js application run permanently?

Here's an upstart solution I've been using for my personal projects:

Place it in /etc/init/node_app_daemon.conf:

description "Node.js Daemon"
author      "Adam Eberlin"

stop on shutdown

respawn
respawn limit 3 15

script
  export APP_HOME="/srv/www/MyUserAccount/server"
  cd $APP_HOME
  exec sudo -u user /usr/bin/node server.js
end script

This will also handle respawning your application in the event that it crashes. It will give up attempts to respawn your application if it crashes 3 or more times in less than 15 seconds.

Re-assign host access permission to MySQL user

The accepted answer only renamed the user but the privileges were left behind.

I'd recommend using:

RENAME USER 'foo'@'1.2.3.4' TO 'foo'@'1.2.3.5';

According to MySQL documentation:

RENAME USER causes the privileges held by the old user to be those held by the new user.

The parameters dictionary contains a null entry for parameter 'id' of non-nullable type 'System.Int32'

You are expecting an id parameter in your URL but you aren't supplying one. Such as:

http://yoursite.com/controller/edit/12
                                    ^^ missing

Hash table in JavaScript

Using the function above, you would do:

var myHash = new Hash('one',[1,10,5],'two', [2], 'three',[3,30,300]);

Of course, the following would also work:

var myHash = {}; // New object
myHash['one'] = [1,10,5];
myHash['two'] = [2];
myHash['three'] = [3, 30, 300];

since all objects in JavaScript are hash tables! It would, however, be harder to iterate over since using foreach(var item in object) would also get you all its functions, etc., but that might be enough depending on your needs.

Ignore .classpath and .project from Git

If the .project and .classpath are already committed, then they need to be removed from the index (but not the disk)

git rm --cached .project
git rm --cached .classpath

Then the .gitignore would work (and that file can be added and shared through clones).
For instance, this gitignore.io/api/eclipse file will then work, which does include:

# Eclipse Core      
.project

# JDT-specific (Eclipse Java Development Tools)     
.classpath

Note that you could use a "Template Directory" when cloning (make sure your users have an environment variable $GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR set to a shared folder accessible by all).
That template folder can contain an info/exclude file, with ignore rules that you want enforced for all repos, including the new ones (git init) that any user would use.


As commented by Abdollah

When you change the index, you need to commit the change and push it.
Then the file is removed from the repository. So the newbies cannot checkout the files .classpath and .project from the repo.

Performance of FOR vs FOREACH in PHP

Here is the OP^ benchmark, ran as unix CLI, without the echo and html parts.

As you can see the evolution is insane, about 560 time faster than reported in 2012.

On my machines and servers, following my numerous experiments, basics for loops are the fastest. This is even clearer using nested loops ($i $j $k..)

It is also the most flexible in usage, and has a better readability from my view.

Simplest way to throw an error/exception with a custom message in Swift 2?

In case you don't need to catch the error and you want to immediately stop the application you can use a fatalError: fatalError ("Custom message here")

Bootstrap modal: is not a function

I meet this error when integrate modal bootstrap in angular.

This is my solution to solve this issue.

I share for whom concern.

First step you need install jquery and bootstrap by npm command.

Second you need add declare var $ : any; in component

And use can use $('#myModal').modal('hide'); on onSave() method

How to properly set Column Width upon creating Excel file? (Column properties)

See this snippet: (C#)

    private Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application xla;
    Workbook wb;
    Worksheet ws;
    Range rg;
    ..........

        xla = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application();
        wb = xla.Workbooks.Add(XlSheetType.xlWorksheet);
        ws = (Worksheet)xla.ActiveSheet;
        rg = (Range)ws.Cells[1, 2];
        rg.ColumnWidth = 10;
        rg.Value2 = "Frequency";
        rg = (Range)ws.Cells[1, 3];
        rg.ColumnWidth = 15;
        rg.Value2 = "Impudence";
        rg = (Range)ws.Cells[1, 4];
        rg.ColumnWidth = 8;
        rg.Value2 = "Phase";

What use is find_package() if you need to specify CMAKE_MODULE_PATH anyway?

If you are running cmake to generate SomeLib yourself (say as part of a superbuild), consider using the User Package Registry. This requires no hard-coded paths and is cross-platform. On Windows (including mingw64) it works via the registry. If you examine how the list of installation prefixes is constructed by the CONFIG mode of the find_packages() command, you'll see that the User Package Registry is one of elements.

Brief how-to

Associate the targets of SomeLib that you need outside of that external project by adding them to an export set in the CMakeLists.txt files where they are created:

add_library(thingInSomeLib ...)
install(TARGETS thingInSomeLib Export SomeLib-export DESTINATION lib)

Create a XXXConfig.cmake file for SomeLib in its ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BUILD_DIR} and store this location in the User Package Registry by adding two calls to export() to the CMakeLists.txt associated with SomeLib:

export(EXPORT SomeLib-export NAMESPACE SomeLib:: FILE SomeLibConfig.cmake) # Create SomeLibConfig.cmake
export(PACKAGE SomeLib)                                                    # Store location of SomeLibConfig.cmake

Issue your find_package(SomeLib REQUIRED) commmand in the CMakeLists.txt file of the project that depends on SomeLib without the "non-cross-platform hard coded paths" tinkering with the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH.

When it might be the right approach

This approach is probably best suited for situations where you'll never use your software downstream of the build directory (e.g., you're cross-compiling and never install anything on your machine, or you're building the software just to run tests in the build directory), since it creates a link to a .cmake file in your "build" output, which may be temporary.

But if you're never actually installing SomeLib in your workflow, calling EXPORT(PACKAGE <name>) allows you to avoid the hard-coded path. And, of course, if you are installing SomeLib, you probably know your platform, CMAKE_MODULE_PATH, etc, so @user2288008's excellent answer will have you covered.

How to stop mysqld

Why does 2 mod 4 = 2?

For:

2 mod 4

We can use this little formula I came up with after thinking a bit, maybe it's already defined somewhere I don't know but works for me, and its really useful.

A mod B = C where C is the answer

K * B - A = |C| where K is how many times B fits in A

2 mod 4 would be:

0 * 4 - 2 = |C|

C = |-2| => 2

Hope it works for you :)

Binary search (bisection) in Python

It might be worth mentioning that the bisect docs now provide searching examples: http://docs.python.org/library/bisect.html#searching-sorted-lists

(Raising ValueError instead of returning -1 or None is more pythonic – list.index() does it, for example. But of course you can adapt the examples to your needs.)

Docker - Container is not running

I have a different take on this. I could do a docker ps and see that there is a docker container running, I even tried to restart it, but as soon as I tried to get a session for it with New-PSSession -ContainerId $containerId -RunAsAdministrator It would error out, saying:

##[error]New-PSSession : The input ContainerId xxx does not exist, ##[error]or the corresponding container is not running.

My problem was I was running with network service and it did not have enough permissions to see the container, even though I had given it permissions to run docker commands (with docker security group configuration)

I didn't know how to enable working with containers, so I had to revert to running it as an admin user instead

Detect all Firefox versions in JS

For a long time I have used the alternative:

('netscape' in window) && / rv:/.test(navigator.userAgent)

because I don't trust user agent strings. Some bugs are not detectable using feature detection, so detecting the browser is required for some workarounds.

Also if you are working around a bug in Gecko, then the bug is probably also in derivatives of Firefox, and this code should work with derivatives too (Do Waterfox and Pale Moon have 'Firefox' in the user agent string?).

Convert timestamp to date in Oracle SQL

Try using TRUNC and TO_DATE instead

WHERE
    TRUNC(start_ts) = TO_DATE('2016-05-13', 'YYYY-MM-DD')

Alternatively, you can use >= and < instead to avoid use of function in the start_ts column:

WHERE
   start_ts >= TO_DATE('2016-05-13', 'YYYY-MM-DD')
   AND start_ts < TO_DATE('2016-05-14', 'YYYY-MM-DD')

Posting JSON data via jQuery to ASP .NET MVC 4 controller action

VB.NET VERSION

Okay, so I have just spent several hours looking for a viable method for posting multiple parameters to an MVC 4 WEB API, but most of what I found was either for a 'GET' action or just flat out did not work. However, I finally got this working and I thought I'd share my solution.

  1. Use NuGet packages to download JSON-js json2 and Json.NET. Steps to install NuGet packages:

    (1) In Visual Studio, go to Website > Manage NuGet Packages... enter image description here

    (2) Type json (or something to that effect) into the search bar and find JSON-js json2 and Json.NET. Double-clicking them will install the packages into the current project.enter image description here

    (3) NuGet will automatically place the json file in ~/Scripts/json2.min.js in your project directory. Find the json2.min.js file and drag/drop it into the head of your website. Note: for instructions on installing .js (javascript) files, read this solution.

  2. Create a class object containing the desired parameters. You will use this to access the parameters in the API controller. Example code:

    Public Class PostMessageObj
    
    Private _body As String
    Public Property body As String
        Get
            Return _body
        End Get
        Set(value As String)
            _body = value
        End Set
    End Property
    
    
    Private _id As String
    Public Property id As String
        Get
            Return _id
        End Get
        Set(value As String)
            _id = value
        End Set
    End Property
    End Class
    
  3. Then we setup the actual MVC 4 Web API controller that we will be using for the POST action. In it, we will use Json.NET to deserialize the string object when it is posted. Remember to use the appropriate namespaces. Continuing with the previous example, here is my code:

    Public Sub PostMessage(<FromBody()> ByVal newmessage As String)
    
    Dim t As PostMessageObj = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(Of PostMessageObj)(newmessage)
    
    Dim body As String = t.body
    Dim i As String = t.id
    
    End Sub
    
  4. Now that we have our API controller set up to receive our stringified JSON object, we can call the POST action freely from the client-side using $.ajax; Continuing with the previous example, here is my code (replace localhost+rootpath appropriately):

    var url = 'http://<localhost+rootpath>/api/Offers/PostMessage';
    var dataType = 'json'
    var data = 'nothn'
    var tempdata = { body: 'this is a new message...Ip sum lorem.',
        id: '1234'
    }
    var jsondata = JSON.stringify(tempdata)
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: url,
        data: { '': jsondata},
        success: success(data),
        dataType: 'text'
    });
    

As you can see we are basically building the JSON object, converting it into a string, passing it as a single parameter, and then rebuilding it via the JSON.NET framework. I did not include a return value in our API controller so I just placed an arbitrary string value in the success() function.


Author's notes

This was done in Visual Studio 2010 using ASP.NET 4.0, WebForms, VB.NET, and MVC 4 Web API Controller. For anyone having trouble integrating MVC 4 Web API with VS2010, you can download the patch to make it possible. You can download it from Microsoft's Download Center.

Here are some additional references which helped (mostly in C#):

Find the directory part (minus the filename) of a full path in access 97

If you're just needing the path of the MDB currently open in the Access UI, I'd suggest writing a function that parses CurrentDB.Name and then stores the result in a Static variable inside the function. Something like this:

Public Function CurrentPath() As String
  Dim strCurrentDBName As String
  Static strPath As String
  Dim i As Integer

  If Len(strPath) = 0 Then
     strCurrentDBName = CurrentDb.Name
     For i = Len(strCurrentDBName) To 1 Step -1
       If Mid(strCurrentDBName, i, 1) = "\" Then
          strPath = Left(strCurrentDBName, i)
          Exit For
       End If
    Next
  End If
  CurrentPath = strPath
End Function

This has the advantage that it only loops through the name one time.

Of course, it only works with the file that's open in the user interface.

Another way to write this would be to use the functions provided at the link inside the function above, thus:

Public Function CurrentPath() As String
  Static strPath As String

  If Len(strPath) = 0 Then
     strPath = FolderFromPath(CurrentDB.Name)
  End If
  CurrentPath = strPath
End Function

This makes retrieving the current path very efficient while utilizing code that can be used for finding the path for any filename/path.

Java "user.dir" property - what exactly does it mean?

System.getProperty("user.dir") fetches the directory or path of the workspace for the current project

Access denied; you need (at least one of) the SUPER privilege(s) for this operation

Statement

DEFINER=username@`%

is an issue in your backup dump.

The solution that you can work around is to remove all the entry from sql dump file and import data from GCP console.

cat DUMP_FILE_NAME.sql | sed -e 's/DEFINER=<username>@%//g' > NEW-CLEANED-DUMP.sql

Try importing new file(NEW-CLEANED-DUMP.sql).

Finding duplicate rows in SQL Server

Select * from (Select orgName,id,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(Partition By OrgName ORDER by id DESC) Rownum
From organizations )tbl Where Rownum>1

So the records with rowum> 1 will be the duplicate records in your table. ‘Partition by’ first group by the records and then serialize them by giving them serial nos. So rownum> 1 will be the duplicate records which could be deleted as such.

css h1 - only as wide as the text

This is because your <h1> is the width of the centercol. Specify a width on the <h1> and use margin: 0 auto; if you want it centered.

Or, alternatively, you could float the <h1>, which would make it only exactly as wide as the text.

Watching variables in SSIS during debug

I know this is very old and possibly talking about an older version of Visual studio and so this might not have been an option before but anyway, my way would be when at a breakpoint use the locals window to see all current variable values ( Debug >> Windows >> Locals )

Reading settings from app.config or web.config in .NET

I'm using this, and it works well for me:

textBox1.Text = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Name"];

Xampp Access Forbidden php

Did you change any thing on the virtual-host before it stop working ?

Add this line to xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

    ServerAdmin localhost
    <Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs">

Lodash .clone and .cloneDeep behaviors

Thanks to Gruff Bunny and Louis' comments, I found the source of the issue.

As I use Backbone.js too, I loaded a special build of Lodash compatible with Backbone and Underscore that disables some features. In this example:

var clone = _.clone(data, true);

data[1].values.d = 'x';

I just replaced the Underscore build with the Normal build in my Backbone application and the application is still working. So I can now use the Lodash .clone with the expected behaviour.

Edit 2018: the Underscore build doesn't seem to exist anymore. If you are reading this in 2018, you could be interested by this documentation (Backbone and Lodash).

VBA EXCEL Multiple Nested FOR Loops that Set two variable for expression

I can't get to your google docs file at the moment but there are some issues with your code that I will try to address while answering

            End If
            'If the columns don't match, or the x value is not a time

EDIT

I changed you worksheet to play with (see above for the new Sub). This probably does not suite your needs directly, but hopefully it will demonstrate the conept behind what I think you want to do. Please keep in mind that this code does not follow all the coding best preactices I would recommend (e.g. validating the time is actually a TIME and not some random other data type).

     A                      B                   C                   D                  E

How to store arrays in MySQL?

MySQL 5.7 now provides a JSON data type. This new datatype provides a convenient new way to store complex data: lists, dictionaries, etc.

That said, arrays don't map well databases which is why object-relational maps can be quite complex. Historically people have stored lists/arrays in MySQL by creating a table that describes them and adding each value as its own record. The table may have only 2 or 3 columns, or it may contain many more. How you store this type of data really depends on characteristics of the data.

For example, does the list contain a static or dynamic number of entries? Will the list stay small, or is it expected to grow to millions of records? Will there be lots of reads on this table? Lots of writes? Lots of updates? These are all factors that need to be considered when deciding how to store collections of data.

Also, Key/Value data stores, Document stores such as Cassandra, MongoDB, Redis etc provide a good solution as well. Just be aware of where the data is actually being stored (if its being stored on disk or in memory). Not all of your data needs to be in the same database. Some data does not map well to a relational database and you may have reasons for storing it elsewhere, or you may want to use an in-memory key:value database as a hot-cache for data stored on disk somewhere or as an ephemeral storage for things like sessions.

ASP.NET MVC Bundle not rendering script files on staging server. It works on development server

For me, the fix was to upgrade the version of System.Web.Optimization to 1.1.0.0 When I was at version 1.0.0.0 it would never resolve a .map file in a subdirectory (i.e. correctly minify and bundle scripts in a subdirectory)

Preferred way of loading resources in Java

Work out the solution according to what you want...

There are two things that getResource/getResourceAsStream() will get from the class it is called on...

  1. The class loader
  2. The starting location

So if you do

this.getClass().getResource("foo.txt");

it will attempt to load foo.txt from the same package as the "this" class and with the class loader of the "this" class. If you put a "/" in front then you are absolutely referencing the resource.

this.getClass().getResource("/x/y/z/foo.txt")

will load the resource from the class loader of "this" and from the x.y.z package (it will need to be in the same directory as classes in that package).

Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResource(name)

will load with the context class loader but will not resolve the name according to any package (it must be absolutely referenced)

System.class.getResource(name)

Will load the resource with the system class loader (it would have to be absolutely referenced as well, as you won't be able to put anything into the java.lang package (the package of System).

Just take a look at the source. Also indicates that getResourceAsStream just calls "openStream" on the URL returned from getResource and returns that.

Determine .NET Framework version for dll

String month = monthFormatter.format(date);

One line if/else condition in linux shell scripting

It's not a direct answer to the question but you could just use the OR-operator

( grep "#SystemMaxUse=" journald.conf > /dev/null && sed -i 's/\#SystemMaxUse=/SystemMaxUse=50M/g' journald.conf ) || echo "This file has been edited. You'll need to do it manually."

Reading/writing an INI file

There is an Ini Parser available in CommonLibrary.NET

This has various very convenient overloads for getting sections/values and is very light weight.

How to set a timeout on a http.request() in Node?

The Rob Evans anwser works correctly for me but when I use request.abort(), it occurs to throw a socket hang up error which stays unhandled.

I had to add an error handler for the request object :

var options = { ... }
var req = http.request(options, function(res) {
  // Usual stuff: on(data), on(end), chunks, etc...
}

req.on('socket', function (socket) {
    socket.setTimeout(myTimeout);  
    socket.on('timeout', function() {
        req.abort();
    });
}

req.on('error', function(err) {
    if (err.code === "ECONNRESET") {
        console.log("Timeout occurs");
        //specific error treatment
    }
    //other error treatment
});

req.write('something');
req.end();

How to use regex in file find

find /home/test -regextype posix-extended -regex '^.*test\.log\.[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}\.zip' -mtime +3
  1. -name uses globular expressions, aka wildcards. What you want is -regex
  2. To use intervals as you intend, you need to tell find to use Extended Regular Expressions via the -regextype posix-extended flag
  3. You need to escape out the periods because in regex a period has the special meaning of any single character. What you want is a literal period denoted by \.
  4. To match only those files that are greater than 3 days old, you need to prefix your number with a + as in -mtime +3.

Proof of Concept

$ find . -regextype posix-extended -regex '^.*test\.log\.[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}\.zip'
./test.log.1234-12-12.zip

How do I download the Android SDK without downloading Android Studio?

Sadly, straight from google, which is where you will want to download if your company firewall blocks other sources, Release 1.6 r1 September 2009 is the latest SDK they have.

How to declare a constant map in Golang?

You can create constants in many different ways:

const myString = "hello"
const pi = 3.14 // untyped constant
const life int = 42 // typed constant (can use only with ints)

You can also create a enum constant:

const ( 
   First = 1
   Second = 2
   Third = 4
)

You can not create constants of maps, arrays and it is written in effective go:

Constants in Go are just that—constant. They are created at compile time, even when defined as locals in functions, and can only be numbers, characters (runes), strings or booleans. Because of the compile-time restriction, the expressions that define them must be constant expressions, evaluatable by the compiler. For instance, 1<<3 is a constant expression, while math.Sin(math.Pi/4) is not because the function call to math.Sin needs to happen at run time.

How is a tag different from a branch in Git? Which should I use, here?

A tag is used to mark a version, more specifically it references a point in time on a branch. A branch is typically used to add features to a project.

How do you do dynamic / dependent drop downs in Google Sheets?

You can start with a google sheet set up with a main page and drop down source page like shown below.

You can set up the first column drop down through the normal Data > Validations menu prompts.

Main Page

Main Page with the drop down for the first column already populated.

Drop Down Source Page

Source page for all of the sub-categories needed

After that, you need to set up a script with the name onEdit. (If you don't use that name, the getActiveRange() will do nothing but return cell A1)

And use the code provided here:

function onEdit() {
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
  var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
  var myRange = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveRange();
  var dvSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Categories");
  var option = new Array();
  var startCol = 0;

  if(sheet.getName() == "Front Page" && myRange.getColumn() == 1 && myRange.getRow() > 1){
    if(myRange.getValue() == "Category 1"){
      startCol = 1;
    } else if(myRange.getValue() == "Category 2"){
      startCol = 2;
    } else if(myRange.getValue() == "Category 3"){
      startCol = 3;
    } else if(myRange.getValue() == "Category 4"){
      startCol = 4;
    } else {
      startCol = 10
    }

  if(startCol > 0 && startCol < 10){
    option = dvSheet.getSheetValues(3,startCol,10,1);
    var dv = SpreadsheetApp.newDataValidation();
    dv.setAllowInvalid(false);  
    //dv.setHelpText("Some help text here");
    dv.requireValueInList(option, true);
    sheet.getRange(myRange.getRow(),myRange.getColumn() + 1).setDataValidation(dv.build());
   }

  if(startCol == 10){
    sheet.getRange(myRange.getRow(),myRange.getColumn() + 1).clearDataValidations();
  } 
  }
}

After that, set up a trigger in the script editor screen by going to Edit > Current Project Triggers. This will bring up a window to have you select various drop downs to eventually end up at this:

Trigger set up

You should be good to go after that!

Convert a number range to another range, maintaining ratio

There is a condition, when all of the values that you are checking are the same, where @jerryjvl's code would return NaN.

if (OldMin != OldMax && NewMin != NewMax):
    return (((OldValue - OldMin) * (NewMax - NewMin)) / (OldMax - OldMin)) + NewMin
else:
    return (NewMax + NewMin) / 2

Black transparent overlay on image hover with only CSS?
